I’ve just been informed by the script coder that I fucked up in a simple copy and pasting of the script. Go me. The Poke Button should now work properly, so commence Poking.

I’ve been reading the blog of one of the guys who was involved in the whole Facebook Cake Party I posted on last month and he recently came up with a pretty nifty script for all you Facebook lovers out there. If you are currently logged in (and admit it, you know you are), then click the button below to send me a poke.

If you have a site of your own, you can snag the code yourself from Legatissimo and join in the giant Pokefest.

Am I the only person who doesn’t like the Rolling Stones?

And even at halftime, I can’t figure out who I want to win this game. I love Bill Cowher and the Steelers are fun to watch, but I can’t help but hope the Seahawks win as well - if for no other reason than to bring my many fellow Mariners fans some joy. Seattle has been a city of sports futility over the past thirty years and maybe if the Hawks can win, some of the winning spirit will rub back off on the M’s. God knows they could use it.

Then again, maybe I’m just pulling that out of my ass and reaching for straws since the upcoming season doesn’t look too promising.

When you sit around working on the computer all day, there are times where your eyes need a break from staring at a 17 inch computer screen. Naturally, this is when I choose to divert them to the slightly bigger television screen across my room since I figure who the hell needs eyes anyways? I’m sure I can just buy new ones when I get older, right after I buy my hover car, ticket to Saturn, and penis growth pills. Not all of which are going to be used at once, mind you.

But the problem with watching television in the middle of the day is that there isn’t anything on worth watching. Sure, I could watch the 1973 World’s Strongest Man competition on ESPN or maybe one of those trashy dating shows on UPN. And if I’m feeling a little too safe and secure, FOX News is always a good choice to scare me back into submission. But other than that, I’m usually SOL.

So with that in mind, I’m starting a new segment here on Shyzer called: “Things Goob’s Ashamed To Enjoy.” Today’s item? Number 29 on the list - Roseanne.

I have no idea where this sudden appreciation for Rosanne came from, but trust me, it’s there. Any time I’m flipping through the stations and stumble across an episode of Roseanne playing on The Oxygen Network, I stop and watch. I guess Number 30 on this list could be that I actually watch something on The Oxygen Network, the same network that has a 90 year old sex therapist on late a night that makes just about anything remotely related to the topic at hand seem unappealing. But that’s for another post.

The bad part is that I think I’ve got Julianne hooked on the damn show as well. Last week I walked into the play room only to be greeted by the obnoxious laughter only capable of emanating from Roseanne’s mouth and I knew right then and there that I had to put a stop to the Crazy Train. It’s one thing to allow myself to hitch a ride on it, but it’s a whole other story when the children are climbing on the caboose while your not looking.

It’s time for another round of my newest favorite pasttime, reading Random Jack Bauer Facts. I literally spend a good 30-45 minutes on that site each day and it has yet to get old. Plus, Google seems to think Shyzer is the leading authority on Jack Bauer stats and facts and they’ve been sending me massive amounts of traffic lately, so I mustn’t disappoint. So, without further A Due.
